    *Both are legends.

    *Both had high voices

    *Both could dance. (Not sure about Rocky, but I'll give him the benefit of the doubt)

    *Both were white (although Rocky was certainly darker than MJ)

    *Both are unfortuneatly no longer with us. :(

    *Both were 5'10

    *Rocky was a hit in the ring.

    *Mike was a hit with the kids

    But....who had the scarier nosejob?

    Michael via plastic surgery, or Rocky via an elbow by Ezzard Charles?

    That's just beautiful. Oh, yeah. I like the desert. It's hot there in the desert, but it's clean. It's clean. I need to sleep. I should drink something first. I should have some....some milk. Wait a minute....what if that milk is sour? That milk is bad. I shouldn't pick up the bottle.....with my right hand. And I shouldn't take the top off....with my left....put it in my pocket. My left pocket.

    This actually made me laugh. Pretty creative.

    Rocky got plastic surgery to repair his nose. Michael had plastic surgery to destroy it.

    You're right about both men having high voices, though I've heard that Jackson's soft speaking voice was a put on. If you watch the This Is It film, you'll hear him speak in a manly tone throughout much of it.

    Yeah, Michael was fronting with that sissy voice. There were plenty times during his career where he slipped up and his real baritone voice came out.

    On that note, I wonder if Rocky Marciano was a good singer? He had a piping voice somewhat like Michael. Rocky was a high tenor for certain. He probably had a good falsetto, me thinks. I can imagine him sounding like this.

    Marciano had a better nose job.


    In boxing:

    Marciano by UD. Jackson was slippery and run away from slow Marciano, but Rocky would win a decision with his activity.

    Rocky by late round(13) TKO.But he would have to come from behind to do it.Michael would use all those smooth dance moves to keep Rocky at bay, but starting around the eighth round, Rock would take it to MJ's body hard.

    What's your favourite Prince album?

    Mine's Dirty Mind closely followed by Sign O' The Times.

    MJ might moonwalk and spin away from Rocky to get an entertaining decision. But I think Rocky catches MJ and ends it with one shot in the 13th round, ala Joe Walcott. Then again, MJ had supernatural powers, ya know. What if he transformed into some kind of werewolf creature and ate the **** out of Rocky's butthole?

    Favorite Prince album? Mine is Emancipation. He used so many styles on that album. Jazz, hip hop, funk, rock, R&B, soul, etc. He was in his element on that one. He had other great albums as well. Great artist. Too bad he's a thief for stealing Rocky Marciano's secret falsetto voice.

    Let's not also forget that both Rocky & MJ have incredible stamina. Likewise, they would probably both be incredible LPR fighters. I think Rocky has an edge in power though.

    IFor me it's Purple Rain or 1999. I have to listen to more Prince though...

    MJ might have some power in that sparkly glove of his. The sparkly socks, too. MJ had better lateral work than Walcott.

    Oh my gosh, yes. Good point. MJ could dance nonstop for a two-hour concert. Rocky could kick your ass for 15 rounds in the ring. Based on that, I give MJ a slight edge. Who has better stamina in the bedroom? Eh, I'd dump them both for Butterbean.
